I'm thinking about getting a handheld as I'm spending more time away from my house and PC. I don't want to get buy hundreds of dollars of games to go with it.

3ds xl / switch / Steam deck / Legion?

There seems a lot of options and all have plenty of games to them. Is there an obvious choice that I'm not aware of?

Thanks.

EDIT: Thanks for the info, a lot to think about. Basically it seems to come down to money anerbic // new 3ds xl // Steam deck. There'll be games on any system that I'll be happy with.

Nah Denuvo isn't kernel level, at least not at the moment. The method used on Linux operates entirely in userland using a custom proton build and the cpuid fault instruction. On older systems that don't support cpuid faulting they do use a kernel module, but this kernel module is much simpler than the Windows HV, it only emulates cpuid faulting and doesn't do anything else.
